Hubby's Deep Love Will Never Change-Chapter 1162 Heather of the Other Shore (186)

"However... it doesn’t really look like it was voluntary. It seems more like he made an enemy of someone."

"Why do you say that?"

"The director just said that the surveillance footage is gone, which clearly indicates someone tampered with it beforehand so we wouldn’t know what happened. As you mentioned, Jiang Yang is someone who really rubs people the wrong way, so it’s possible he’s made some enemies and now he’s reaping the consequences. But I don’t care; I find him pretty disgusting anyway. It’s good he got beaten up, maybe he’ll learn his lesson and behave next time."

"I think he’ll end up with an emotional scar!"

In the end, Qianxun couldn’t help but ask, "No video?"

Gu Liancheng grabbed Qianxun, causing her to let out a surprised "Ah!"

He whispered, "You’re dead meat tonight."

Heather whistled, "Wow, that’s not suitable for kids... Please don’t corrupt me, I’m still a child!"

Yi Yang smiled and glanced sideways, noticing that his boss’s mouth seemed to twitch slightly.

From the start, they knew the hotel Gu Liancheng and his party booked was the same one as Nian Shen’s, but they didn’t expect their rooms to be next door. This amused Qianxun so much that she ran over to visit, planning an all-nighter chat with Heather, which made Gu Liancheng very anxious.

However, with his wife not coming back, Gu Liancheng didn’t want to go back alone either, so he sat in the living room waiting. Nian Shen took out some treasured fine wine, and the two men started a second round of drinking, occasionally chatting.

"Why did Mr. Nian suddenly think of opening a branch in Linyang?" Gu Liancheng asked. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"The market here is quite good, with great potential, so I wanted to give it a try," Nian Shen toasted him. "In the future, I’ll be relying on Mr. Gu’s guidance. If there’s anything needed, could I possibly ask Mr. Gu for help?"

"Of course, since Heather and I are good friends. If her boss has any issues, I’ll naturally help as much as I can."

"But there’s something I find a bit strange," Nian Shen said.

"What is it?"

"As far as I remember, wasn’t it Xiao Man who was closer to Mr. Gu? Although Heather looks a lot like Xiao Man, she is not Xiao Man. Is Mr. Gu’s way of making friends a bit unique? Do they have to look alike?"

Gu Liancheng raised an eyebrow, then laughed, "That’s just a coincidence."

"Oh? It’s a coincidence that Heather and Xiao Man look alike and also both happen to be Mr. Gu’s friends?"

"To be precise, Xiao Man is my friend, while Heather is my wife’s friend, and she’s closer to my wife. As for what my wife’s friends look like, I really have no control over that."

Nian Shen laughed, moving on from the topic: "Of course. Nothing much, I just find it fascinating. I remember you guys like to call this... fate. So let’s call it fate, just like how we ended up drinking together tonight because of Heather, which was unexpected."

"Mr. Nian seems to know a lot about our culture, cheers."

"Cheers."

After a few more drinks, the two men delved into deeper conversation.

"Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu have a very enviable relationship."

"I also know that Mr. Nian has a girlfriend, it’s Miss Qu Leqi, right? Why didn’t Mr. Nian bring Miss Qu along to introduce her to everyone at tonight’s dinner?"

"It’s just the beginning, not stable yet, so I’m holding off on introductions for now."

"Oh, I see," Gu Liancheng chuckled, "still in the trial period."
